I also just started learning figure skating, right before I turned 14 this year. When I saw this video on my recommended I thought it was meant to be! Thank you so much for your advice 🤍I'll need it on my skating journey
Thank you for this video! I will definitely try your off ice workout. I also really like the idea of keeping track of your skating progress. This video was super helpful💛
Hi Lisa, this video is inspiring! I admire your self-awareness, your mindset and your understanding of what is realistic and what isn't. Almost everything you said about motivation, mindset and self reminders apply to so many things in life, and I think it's amazing you have this way of thinking at such a young age. Good luck on your ice skating journey, enjoy every moment!
Awww!! Thank you so so much!! I'm so glad this video inspired you 😊 This is the reason I created this channel!! I'm so grateful for your feedback, it means a lot to me 🫶🏼
I haven’t started figure skating yet but I’m going to start figure skating after I finish a learnt to skate class! I’m still 13 but I’ll start figure skating a bit before I turn 14 so when I saw this video I thought it was perfect and it describes what I’m going to do so well!!
i love seeing your videos and how fast you progress! i started figure skating in october 2023, and in this past month ive seen so many improvements with using these tips! thank u so much
This video was really helpful! I started figure skating when I was 11 in the beginning of this year. I was embarrassed because I was taking classes with little kids. After a couple of lessons, I started to take private lessons with one of my favorite coaches and practice my skills during public sessions. Now, I practice off ice and on ice during the summer and I can’t wait to start taking lessons again this fall! Also, you inspire me soooo much!⛸️
This comment made me laugh. I’m 30+ taking classes with little kids like you lol. I remember having the feeling of embarrassment as a child. But now as an adult, I cannot care less about what other people think about me because all that matters is how you see yourself.
Awwwww that is so sweet!!! So happy for you that you started skating :) Honestly, who you take classes with doesn't matter! Always remember that you're there for yourself and your own progress only 🫶🏼🫶🏼 Wishing you so much fun!!
this is really helping me. i started my learn to skate classes a few weeks ago and i bought my own skates and i go to public sessions whenever i can. i really want to be able to compete in qualifying comps and be able to join my rinks high performance team. thank you for the inspiration!
Honestly your progress is so amazing and inspiring! I've been skating for 2 yrs now (I could only skate 1-2 hours a week for 1.5 yrs with not much off ice training, so my slow progress makes sense. Thanks for this video :)
I loved this video! This is super inspiring because I started skating october 2023 (at a similar age) so I hope that in a year I can be as good as you! I have a few questions: how often do you go to the rink per week (how many days + hours)? how long after starting skating was your first competition? I am hoping to compete but I am not sure if it is too soon. your advice was really good (just subscribed!) and I look forward to watching more videos from you! :)
Hiii😊🫶🏻 I'm soo glad you found this video helpful, it means so much to me 🥰 I wish you the best luck on your skating journey!! But don't compare yourself to others 😊 My training hours: When I first started in October I went 1 day 1h/week (+ 2-3 hours on the weekend) Around the middle of November I went 2 days 2,5h/week (also 2-3 hours on the weekend) After February to April I went 2-3 days 2,5-4h/week (and still on the weekend) :) All hours stated above with a coach except for the weekends. All this time I had 30-60 minutes off ice per week with a coach. At the moment I'm going 4 days 5,5h/week That's just official training hours with a coach. I'm at the rink 7-9+ hours a week. Off ice 75 minutes per week with a coach + ~50 minutes by myself (warm up). All these training informations apply to just me, it doesn't mean that anybody is going to do as well with the schedule as I am and I have many really great progressing friends who don't skate as much as I do. 🫶🏻 This is not for you to compare yourself just for informational purposes. I don't know whether you were thinking about it, but just because you might skate as much as I do or less or more, you will probably make completely different progress. You might be better than me in a year, who knows 🙈 And even if you aren't better than me in a year, that's completely okay. It's not a race, you might lose all your fun in this sport if you start comparing yourself to others, really. The memories are what counts and all the fun, love and passion you bring into skating (I have to remind myself of that too, everyone should 💗). I skated my first competition a little under 6 months after starting! Just compete when you feel ready (!!!!) and when you're aware of the fees where you live (it's expensive 🫣). And thank you for all the feedback that's so sweet of youuu ☀️💗
Hii I already answered this question!

I started learning figure skating at the age of 11 and I’ve been continuing it since then, but the problem is I don’t have a ice rink close by. I only have one which I go to, but I can go only once a week. What should I do?
I've never been in that situation, I can not give professional advice but just some tips ☺️ Maybe try implementing off ice jump training, spinner training, inline artistic and go to the ice rink whenever you can or try artistic roller skating or artistic inline skating if it's more convenient for you 🫶🏻🫶🏻
I’m also 14, and I must say you shared this so maturely! My biggest issue is to not beat myself up/get frustrated quickly (I taught myself and ended up rotating the wrong way and it’s frustrating re-learning jumps + spins on my other leg), and probably social anxiety! I really want a coach but I’ve held off months being to shy to email them, and talk to people at my rink. You’re my new inspiration, I wish you well on the rest of your skating journey! 🫶
Well you could check if there are any rinks which you're able to go to by car/train.. if it's a longer ride you could skate on weekends and do off ice training/ ballet during the week 🫶🏻 But if there are no skating rinks at all you could go to skating camps during holiday or try inline artistic 🙈 Those would be my ideas!! Hope it helps 💗
if ice skating literally isnt an option for you, you could look into artistic roller skating and see if its popular/avalible in ur country, its basically figure skating but on roller skates, its taken seriously as well there are world championships for it. its popular in hotter countries.
Babes you know you have to be a good and quick learner and be athletic or a bit fit hun. I started at 14 but because i practiced at home a lot before i began i went through levels hella quick.
,, wow I am just speechless of this yt video basically this whole video is about a girl who is just telling you that you need to be rich to do figure skating and who fast she could to it with me money of her parents and if your can’t afford the professional skates then you can’t do shit this video is just soo unmotivated video I ever saw in my whole life the only good ,, tip” I got from this video is making notes after training. If I could sue you from taking my time I definitely would. “
Oh, please go outside. Most professional figure skaters would tell you it takes a lot of time, money, and discipline. As a matter of fact, many do come from rich, well-off families. Skating is expensive and that's a well known fact obviously there are other methods however you'll definitely progress slower (which is also ok) but that shouldn't be unmotivating for you if you really wanted to do figure skating you'd do it.
ik its hard money was also a massive factor as to why i couldnt do it as often, my only advice is to get a job, nothing permanent just something to do so u can afford to skate. i got one at my rink. totally get that might not be an option for you but its kinda the only option sadly :(
Your comment is absolutely ridiculous!!! First, it is well known that figure skating is one of the most expensive sport. Second, any sport is expensive if you want to advance and compete. Quality equipment, private lessons, traveling...all $$$. Now stop whining, use some common sense and apologize to the girl.
Hey! Im a figure skater i started at 7 but had to leave for 4yrs bc of Family Problems.But i got back at figure skating now i dont know how to progress🥲🥲
Ohhh!! But so cool that you got back 🥰 You could try using the tips from the video I sent you already and this one might help you too 🫶🏼 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-bPx9UDYevgM.html
that's a great beginning!! ☺️ I struggle with that too sometimes but one can't control the others progress just their own 💗 This is how I try to get back to work for achieving my goals 🫶🏻 You got this!!
I'm starting figure skating at January 11th and I'm super excited! I already know the basics, so i think it won't be that hard at first. And i think i will improve fast too! And i think you should make more videos! Happy New Year!❤
I always feel so embarrassed that even though I've been skating 6 months already, I still don't have my own skates or learned any jumps 🫣😳 ur living my dream girl xx ❤
You can do it! Eventually you'll get there🥰🫶🏼🫶🏼 but if you don't feel like you're learning anything at all you could think of a coach switch maybe 🤔 I wish you luck 😊
Thank you for the video but my friends take figure skating classes together and I don’t but they don’t push me down but it just kind of makes me left out and when we ice/figure skate they are talking all professional and I feel kind of left out but it’s ok! ❤
I've skated for four months and I've learned (and landed) waltz, Salchow, toe-loop, and loop jumps. I'm gonna learn half-flip soon and I'm really happy with my fast progress.
